On the stabilization of ion sputtered surfaces [PDF]

, 2007
The classical theory of ion beam sputtering predicts the instability of a flat surface to uniform ion irradiation at any incidence angle. We relax the assumption of the classical theory that the average surface erosion rate is determined by a Gaussian ...

A new adaptive response surface method for reliability analysis [PDF]

, 2013
Response surface method is a convenient tool to assess reliability for a wide range of structural mechanical problems. More specifically, adaptive schemes which consist in iteratively refine the experimental design close to the limit state have received ...

Octupole response and stability of spherical shape in heavy nuclei [PDF]

, 2003
The isoscalar octupole response of a heavy spherical nucleus is analyzed in a semiclassical model based on the linearized Vlasov equation. The octupole strength function is evaluated with different degrees of approximation.

The transient response of global-mean precipitation to increasing carbon dioxide levels [PDF]

, 2010
The transient response of global-mean precipitation to an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels of 1% yr(-1) is investigated in 13 fully coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) and compared to a period of stabilization ...

Atmospheric response to observed intraseasonal tropical sea surface temperature anomalies [PDF]

, 2004
The major tropical convective and circulation features of the intraseasonal or Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) are simulated as a passive response to observed MJO sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM),

Analytical Reliability Evaluation Framework of Three-Dimensional Engineering Slopes

Buildings, 2022
An analytical three-dimensional slope reliability evaluation framework was developed in this work independent of use of numerical simulations. The slope stability analysis was necessarily carried out by utilizing an extended three-dimensional Morgenstern–

Surface roughness and interfacial slip boundary condition for quartz crystal microbalances [PDF]

, 2003
The response of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) is considered using a wave equation for the substrate and the Navier-Stokes equations for a finite liquid layer under a slip boundary condition.

Impact of surface phenomena on direct bulk flexoelectric effect in finite samples

, 2015
In the framework of a continuum theory, it is shown that the direct flexoelectric response of a finite sample essentially depends on the surface polarization energy, even in the thermodynamic limit where the body size tends to infinity.
